CEO of CALM Simon Gunning on how to talk to your kids about suicide

This week on Who We Are Now with Izzy and Richard Hammond, we chat to the absolutely brilliant and self professed "marketing w*nker" Simon Gunning on the incredible work that Campaign Against Living Miserably is doing to support thousands of people nationwide. The three talk about the difficult intersection between charity and corporate sensibility, the tricky nature of the Papageno effect and the essential tools you need to talk to your children about suicide. It's a must listen.
